Maple Leafs Unveil List of First Two Groups to Skate at Leafs Training Camp

It's another big day for the Maple Leafs on Thursday, following a very busy marketing & media day on Wednesday to begin Leafs training camp.

The Leafs begin on-ice sessions on Thursday, and with line rushes expected to take place imminently, Leafs beat reporter David Alter has shared a list of the first two groups that will skate.

The most notable detail among the Group One list is that Matias Maccelli appears to have been tagged as the top line RW with Max Domi suffering an unfortunate and untimely injury before the start of training camp.

Early remarks from the team suggest that Domi's situation is only day-to-day, so we'll have to wait and see what happens once he returns. There's a good chance he slots in next to Knies and Matthews upon his return, as Leafs coach Craig Berube seemed to identify him as the frontrunner for the job on Wednesday.

Group Two features a good mix of veterans and rookies as well, with top prospect Easton Cowan and feisty young forward Landon Sim among those joining John Tavares, William Nylander, Chris Tanev, Jake McCabe and others.

Sim will be an intriguing player to watch during training camp after his recent comments about being able to bring something to the table that the Leafs only have in short supply.

The Leafs will begin training camp with Joseph Woll and Anthony Stolarz skating with different groups, as Stolarz is paired with rookie netminder Dennis Hildeby in Group One, while Woll is paired with Artur Akhtyamov in Group Two.

With 73 players expected to attend Maple Leafs training camp and only 46 players skating in Groups One and Two, we should expect to see additional group listings today or tomorrow.
